Wrong[/quote]

Wrong what way? [/quote]

Apologies, I shouldn't have been so curt.  There are a couple of ways that salary may not be "publicly available"

1. As discussed in this thread, it is not only the IC that witholds salary info in FOIA requests.
2. Often what is disclosed is not "total compensation."  Just base salary.
2. Generally the FOIA releases are dated, often a year old.  So if somebody recently joined, changed positions, or got a promotion, it would not be available or accurate.[/quote]

I can look up my info easy w/o FOIA and it’s pretty dang close.[/quote]

I'm not sure what your point is?  If you are looking up your name and getting a salary.....that is a result of somebody submitting a FOIA request.
And just because you can see your salary does not mean that [i]all[/i] of the nearly 2M federal salaries are equally available.[/quote]
